I searched the forums and did not find a mod like that (there were people asking about one, but it was not done) , so I may do that. I will think about it.

EDIT: Also, I did find a realistic worldgenning thing for North America:

I did not make the map, but so is Greenland. (Or is it Iceland?)

It has been decided upon as a Colonization of the Americas Mod! Kudos to Jake for the idea.

It will be for 31.12, I will eventually update it to 31.13, and future versions. (As soon as Dwarf Therapist is updated for it)

I will get to work tomorrow, unless someone comes up with a good idea. Also, I would need some help with graphics (I'm no good at artist stuff), anyone who helps with that gets a thank-you and a spot in the credits. I have a general idea of what I'm going for, but if anyone has a suggestion, i would be sure to consider it.

Glad I could contribute. I've got plans for a realistic black powder firearms mod, so as soon as I have my DF-capable rig back I'll be glad to donate the necessary raw entries.

Never used Dwarf Therapist, mods or tilesets in all the years I've been playing.
I think Toady's confusing interface better simulates the experience of a bunch of disorganised drunken dwarves running a fort.

Black Powder Firearms - Superior firepower, realistic manufacturing and rocket launchers!

It's Florida. No further explanation is needed.

The correct tag is AMPHIBIOUS. Not like that'd fix the AI.

Also, it's semi-possible to get "underwater cities" by forcing a civ to make sites on oceans. As dark fortress placement is essentially random it's entirely possible for one to end up partially underwater. I'd assume it'd work in a similar way for regular cities as well, but I haven't tried that out.

If this mod will allow you to defend your family plantation against hordes of marauding "Native Americans", then I want.

That's the kind of thing that happened back then, so yes.

EDIT: I ave a rough rendition of the main empires in North America at the time, am I forgetting anything? I have Britain, Spain, Portugal, France, and the Indians. Was there anyone else in N.A. (Or S.A.) at the time?

EDIT2: Oh look, the people I added! But why are the black squares like that?

It's spelt Spaniard, so you know.

That's the great thing about this forum. We can derail any discussion into any other topic.
It's not an embark so much as seven dwarves having a simultaneous strange mood and going off to build an artifact fortress that menaces with spikes of awesome and hanging rings of death.
